...national grilled cheese day....yum.....

This morning I heard that today is national grilled cheese day - my favorite sandwich! So I quickly went to the fridge to see what I had in the way of cheese......one lonely piece of provolone and a tiny chunk of cheddar left, between the two of them I could make a sandwich for lunch. It always brings back memories of growing up when my friend/neighbor Vicki and I would have grilled cheese sandwiches all summer long while on school vacation and we put pickles in them, sometimes dill, sometimes sweet. In honor of that memory I put sweet & hot pickles and pepperocini in mine - I don't know when I've enjoyed my lunch at home so much.

This is the underside of that first scarf on the warp from yesterday - I like the backside better. I've decided what bothers me about this pattern is that the background is so busy, the crepe weave. As I learn more of the in's & out's of the software I'm going to alter this pattern to be a 1/3 twill. Now off to weave another scarf using a deep red for the weft...now that I've finished my yummy lunch....

About Me

The dance my feet make on the treadles of the loom as the shuttle moves to and fro forming the cloth….the whirl of the spinning wheel as yarn is created from fluffs of fiber….the click-clack of bamboo knitting needles as a knit item is created….the inter-twining of wool fibers creating beautiful artwork on my felted pieces….the shades of the rainbow in the dyepots as I play with color….the twinkle of glass beads adorning many of my scarves and shawls….these are the things that fuel my creative life
